Spring is still a couple of weeks
awaybut impressive domain sales continue to blossom at a
variety of venues. Heritage
Auctions closed several sizeable sales made at the live
auction they staged last month at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in
New York City, including three that smashed through the
six-figure barrier. That trio, led by NL.com at $575,000,
fills the first three slots on this week's all extension Top 20 Sales Chart.
NL.com also ranks as the third biggest sale reported so
far this year.

HA claimed the next two spots on this
week's elite list with Classic.com at $172,500 and 8.co
at $115,000. 8.co is the 2nd biggest ccTLD sale so
far in 2015, trailing only SE.TV (a name that sold for $265,149 in January).
Rounding out the first five are NameJet's$69,200 sale of #4 Buying.com and another HA sale - #5
SIE.com at $27,600.

That SIE.com sale is one of eight
three-letter .coms on the leader board as short .com domains
continue a phenomenal hot streak. NameJet accounted for six of those
three-letter sales, including #6 YRY.com at $25,022 en
route to piling up 10 of the 20 chart entries overall.

It was a huge week in general for the .coms
as they swept 18 chart positions, leaving just one spot each for the
ccTLDs and the non .com gTLDs. The latter group was
represented by Sedo's
$13,000 sale of #11 Legend.net.

While NameJet, Heritage Auctions and Sedo dominated
the leader board, DomainsNext.com
slipped into the one spot they missed, planting their flag at #13
with 0328.com at $12,000.

Here is how all of the sales leaders stack up for the week ending Sunday,
March 1:

Keep in mind that these are the highest
value cash only sales that have been reported to us in the
past week. This column is meant to be an educational tool,
not a complete list documenting ALL high
value domain sales. Such a list is impossible to produce
because many sales are kept private at the insistence of
buyers, sellers or both. Our procedure for verifying the
accuracy of domain sales reports is available here.

NameJet also scored with Dajinrong.com at $6,800,
4958.com at $6,700, 15U.com at $6,189 and Hedai.com
at $6,100. NameJet had 90 more four-figure .com sales ranging
from $2,052 to $4,000 that are listed in the table
below:

Clinitech.com clicked for $5,499, Air4.com
fetched $5,000 and PropertyTour.com produced $4,999.
Sedo had 44 more four-figure .com sales ranging from
$2,000 to $4,995 that are listed in the table below:

No doubt about who was king of
the ccTLD hill this weekafter that blockbuster $115,000
sale of 8.co at Heritage Auctions. The next two spots on this
week's Country Code Top
20 Sales Chart went to Sedo who also scored with a .co
at #2 - banking $9,180 for Moon.co. #3 GoodGame.co.za
generated another $5,550 for them.

NameJet rounded out the first five with a pair
of .tv domains - 20.tv and 30.tv - that
tuned in $5,000 each. Sedo then filled the next eight
places in a row on their way to taking 16 of the 21 chart
entries (the extra spot resulted from a tie for the final
opening). That run started with #6 Lace.eu at $4,163.

Germany's .de easily won the extension
race with six chart entries, including three in the top ten, led
by #7 Additive-Manufacturing.de at $4.007.
